These Paleo Double Chocolate Cookies are rich, fudgy, packed with chocolate and so delicious! Naturally sweetened, gluten free, dairy free and just as satisfying as a traditional cookie.
I’ve been wanting to make and share a paleo chocolate cookie, but I knew it needed to be great. Not just ok or pretty good, but amazing. It had to live up to the standard of a traditional cookie and this one does. It is soft, gooey, and satisfies that chocolate craving. I highly recommend them straight from the oven- and it may get a little messy 🙂
I made these twice and the first time I made them small- while they were good and fudgy, I thought they needed to be bigger. The next time I made them twice the size and loved how they came out.
They are so easy to make, everything is mixed in one bowl and they are in the oven in just a few minutes.
Best way to scoop cookies
The dough is pretty sticky when it’s mixed. If it’s too sticky to scoop then add an additional tablespoon of coconut flour and wait a couple minutes to let it absorb. Using a cookie scoop helps keep them all the same size, but you can divide the batter into 9 equal portions for the same result.

I made these cookies a few days ago and they are amazing. I did add walnuts and topped them with some chocolate ganache. These are my favorite cookies so far. So easy to make too. I did need the extra tablespoon coconut flour.
